Think I removed something important from the database

Member

I was trying to remove some files from the database that belongs to a add-on, but I think I removed some things that belongs to Xenforo. For example, an unregistered user can no longer see the forum, it says that he has to be logged in to do that. The user still has the allowance in the permission options though. There are also some errors almost everywhere.

It looks like you removed files from the forum folder and nothing from the database. They are 2 entirely different things.

Anyway, do not do a fresh install but simply download a copy of xenforo from your customer area and then overwrite your forum files with them. That would take care to replace whatever file/s that you have deleted.

Hmm.. I have done exactly as you say but it still gives me that error message when I run "file health check". There are no errors in the "Server error log". I'm pretty sure removed something from my database, becasue I was removing some files from there, and then it stopped working.

Thanks for trying to help me. I will try to explain exactly what I've done.. sorry for my vague information.

I had a add-on called LNblog on my site that I wanted to remove, because I wanted to install another blog add-on. When I tried to remove the add-on I got a error message telling me that the files to be able to perform the uninstall wasn't there. When I finally was able to remove the add-on and was trying to install the other add-on it was something in the database that was conflicting with the new add-on. My old add-on had some information in the database that I had to remove in order to install my new add-on correctly.

I went into MySQL and did a search for "LNblog". I removed everything that had a reference to lnblog in the database and now I have the error that I got now. I'm sorry, but I can't remember which files in the database I was removing, but I think it was for instance something that had to do with permissions. :

What is wrong:
If I go to the site I am presented with this message: "You must be logged-in to do that". If I log in with my administrator account I'm able to go to the admin cp and reach everything else on the site. If I log in with another user I'm presented with the same message: "You must be logged in to do that".

What does the actual error say in your Admin control Panel
(ACP >> Tools > Server Error Log):
admin.php?logs/server-error (click on the error and paste the Error Info, Stack Trace and Request State here)
